Special Dispatch to the Appeal.
WASHINGTON, Dec 3.-There seem 10
be two candidates mentioned so far by
members OF the national Republican com
mlttec for the position OF chairman, in
ease the present chairman, Mr.. b. +.
Jones, OF Pittsburg, should resign which
Is regarded rs sure TO happen. These two
men are Senator Sawyer, OF Wisconsin.
and Col. Dudley, Of Indiana. SAWYER has
notified his friends on the committee posi-
lively that he will not accept the chair
manship, even II II were rendered to him,
although he feels highly honored by the
suggestion Of his name. lie says he is too
old to undertake such n hcrculcan task. A
member OF the committee is authority
Tor the statement that Col. Dudley Is
the coming man. \ majority OF the com
mittee are in favor Of his appointment. lie
is regarded rs one OF the shrcwdest politi-
cal managers in the country, and his APP
polntmcnt IL made because IL is believed
that he can carry Indiana. IL will be re-
mcmbered that when Col. Dudley was
United States marshal Of Indiana he took
an active part in the campaign Of 1880.
lie began the work OF organization eight.
cen months before the October elections
OF that year. lie put correspondents in
every township in the State and sent them
Republican literature TO distribute, and lac
arranged n system Of reports and polling
lists which brought him into close
relations with the people. lie
was all the time well advised
of the DRIFT OF public sentiment and took
advantage OF IT, When the central COM
mittce was organized lac worked with il,
and, probably, more than any other man,
was responsible for the Republican vic.
tory. The strong executive ability and
capacity for organization which he dis
played in that campaign have not been
forgotten 10y the Republicans, especially
NJ this lunclurc, when greater effort than
ever will Ice made 10 secure victory. Col
Dudley IN still Young man, having
reached his iorty-hlth birthday last Au-
gust lie Is Nermontcr by birth, and
was educated ut Phillips academy and
Yale college, although he did not gradu-
ate. lie went into the war when hc was
nineteen wears old, under Lincoln's call
Tor 10000 volunteers. lie organized the
Richmond Grcys, Of Richmond, Ind,
and, rs captain, rendered their services
To Gov. Morton, when the company
was put into the Nineteenth Indiana vol.
untccrs. At Gettysburg Gen. Dudley lost
his right leg. lie has lately been employed
at 81. Paul, Mimi, in building a cable
street railroad. Although the company
with which he was connected met with
serious business rcycncs, Col Dudley ear
ricd the road through 10 completion. and
demonstrated once more Lis remarkable
executive ability. His appointment will
not afford much satisfaction 20 the indie.
pendent class OF voters, hut the leading
Republicans think what IL needed this
time is through organization, and that such
a man as Dudley Is necessary To secure IL.

decision in the case OF VIM. II. Council
VS.. the Western & Atlantic railroad.
Council, colored, principal of the Hunts
vile (Ala) Industrial school was
forced from the regular passenger coach
on that road into "Jim Grow"
cara hall coach provided for
colored people. The opinion by
Commissioner Morrison holds that
cOlorcd people may he assigned to separate
cars on equal terms without advantage 10
either race and with increased comfort TO
both; that complainant paid the same fare
rs other first class passengers, and il was
only fair dealing and common honesty
that he should have the security
and convenience OF travel for which
his money had been taken ,
that the car furnished was only
second class IN comforts for travel, and the
road must furnish colorcd people. who
buy first class tickets, accommodations
equally safe and comfortable with other
Inst class accommodations The following
eases were also decided W. O. Ilarwcll
and others, for the town Of Opclika,
Ala, vs. the Cumberland 4 West

ion by Walker The report finds
that Opclika was Disseminated against in
favor OF Columbus and Montgomery. The
reasons claimed To Justify this will not be
found sufficient. No order was made for
the reason that other localities should be

Nearly all the answers admitted the
necessity Of rovsDuc reduction by from fifty
10 one hundned millions, but there was
great diversity m 10 how IL Is 10 be- cf-
icctcd. The Democratic revenue reform
ems urge the reduction IT the tariff on all
articles that can be called the ncccssarics

hacco. The Republicans aud Randall

advocate the abolitionoi nearly all internal

ccpiion being whisky The more prolcc-
tionists advocate the entire repeal oi the
